Our dear friend and long-time member Dave passed away on the 10th of December 2018. He will be missed and remembered fondly. May he rest in peace.
Whilst I firmly believe religion is a load of bollocks, there has been some truly magnificent music written over the years with a religious subtext.
Thanks, my dear. This is a welcome theme, but I fear I am going to submit too many examples. You may have noticed that I like quite a wide range of, mainly, classical music (for want of a better term) that moves me deeply.
Schubert's Der Hirt auf dem Felsen sung by 14 year-old Aksel Rykkvin.//www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiN1D9R-IAs
I've got a big soft spot for Ralph Vaugh Williams, esp. The Lark Ascending//www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR2JlDnT2l8
I confess that I also like swing, That's because I grew up with that kind of stuff.....a really really long time ago.
